Learning unit contents
Introduction à la Neuroanatomie
This unit provides the fundamental knowledge for physiotherapy and motor sciences students concerning the structure of the nervous system and its vegetative and somatic sensorimotor systems.

Contents
* Spinal cord and spinal cord syndromes
* Vegetative nervous system
* Sensory systems including pain
* Cerebellum, coordination, balance
* Voluntary motricity and basal ganglia
* CNS Vascularisation and functional anatomy of the encephalon
* Cranial nerves and oculomotor function
* Spinal nerves
* Vision and cognition
* Meninges and CSF, consciousness
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Introduction à la Neuroanatomie
The general objective of this course is to provide the student with an understanding of the structure of the normal nervous system and sensory organs. The course contents have been chosen with the help of the physiotherapy and motor science teachers in order to provide a large knowledge base that is necessary and adequate for further teaching. This course is part of a multidisciplinary strategy which leads the
- physiotherapy student from the understanding of the normal structure and function of the human nervous system to its abnormalities and to neurological disorders. This lays the ground for the course teaching neurological physiotherapy, as well as the integrative course "Problem Based Learning" ("Apprentissage par problèmes - Approche multidisciplinaire du système nerveux appliquée à la kinésithérapie."), and
- the students of motor sciences to a neuroanatomical basis for the following applied course.
Learning objectives are outlined in a list provided to the students.
Neuroanatomie et Neurophysiologie avancée
Apply knowledge from the introctury courses and build further understanding of the function of the nervous system. This course is part of a multidisciplinary strategy which leads the student from the understanding of the normal structure and function of the human nervous system to its abnormalities and to neurological disorders. This lays the ground for the course teaching neurological physiotherapy, as well as the integrative course "Problem Based Learning" ("Apprentissage par problèmes - Approche multidisciplinaire du système nerveux appliquée à la kinésithérapie.").
Learning objectives are provided to the students.

Introduction à la Neuroanatomie
Exam(s) in session
Any session
- In-person
written exam ( multiple-choice questionnaire )
Out-of-session test(s)
Further information:
Out-of-exam-session questionnaire after this introductory course (MCQ). The points obtained account for 10% of the first session neuroanatomy grade.
Written exam in the 1st exam session: The MCQs of neuroanatomy and neurophysiology (introduction and , NERF0539-A-a, -B-a and (kinésithérapie)-C-a account for
- 90% of the points in the first session for students in physiotherapy-readaptation and
- 60% of points in motor science (for the remaining 30%, see NERF0537-J-a ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
The points obtained during the year (out-of-exam-session) cannot be taken over to the second session and the second session exam results therefore account for
- 100% of the points in physiotherapy-readaptation
- 50% of points in motor science (for the remaining 50%, see NERF0537-J-a ????????????????)
Neuroanatomie et Neurophysiologie avancée
Exam(s) in session
Any session
- In-person
written exam ( multiple-choice questionnaire )
Further information:
Written examination in session: MCQ. Open questions possible.
This accounts for 90% of the final result (of NERF0539-A-a, -B-a et -C-a) in the first exam session and 100% in the second exam session (out of session points are not taken into account for the second session).
